It depends on who you talk to,

I don't know much about them myself,

but there is some good discussion about them on HybridZ

search on "Tony D ", he is a wealth of information.

Yeah I'm sure their very similar but my flat tops have a **** load of hoses for the emission crap. Couldn't turn them down for the price :D

3 screw round tops- rare as. def early type no emissions stuff, used a different needle and are bigger 1" 3/4(?) than flattops , best performer. have seen over 150whp with these( usually stirs up the weber lovers)

good score.

Haven't done much on the car as I've been distracted with my 4x4. But now I've stopped spending cash on that I'm back keen to work on the Datto. First bit of inspiration was a quick sketch I did in illustrator :)

nah man not yet. few things i can hopefully get hold of off the spares car that wernt on it like heater box and drive shafts.. but so far its looking ok.

lucky i took the crossmember and struts out of the last one, because this one had engine mounts welded on for the rb20 and the struts wernt complete. so going to paint mine up and put them in, and do rear end to get it rolling.

heres a better pic
